About S&S Cycle
The performance aftermarket, both 2 and 4 wheel, was born on race tracks around the world. Enthusiasts in their single-car garages grinding aluminum and welding steel late into the night, all in the hopes of a quicker ET or a higher top speed. For many, it stayed on the local tracks, a select few translated their passion for performance into global enterprises. In 1958 George Smith chose the latter, and across the next sixty-plus years, S&S Cycle would mature from a grassroots racing effort to a world-class manufacturer and OEM partner. All the while, racing has remained a core competency. From speed records at the Bonneville Salt Flats to multi-year championships in American Flat Track, S&S is the go-to for high performance on and off the race track.
